"Assistant Teaching Professor in Information Systems"

The Michael G. Foster School of Business at the University of Washington consistently ranks among the top business schools in the United States—for both undergraduate and graduate degrees. The Foster School serves a diverse, multicultural population of more than 2,500 students. With one-in-four UW freshman applicants requesting business majors, demand for a Foster School business education is significant and growing.

We are driven by our purpose of fostering leaders, insights, and progress to better humanity. The Information Systems and Operations Management (ISOM) Department, with its international reputation for research productivity and teaching excellence, works together with other Foster School departments, UW schools and colleges, and community partners (e.g., Starbucks, Costco, Amazon, and Microsoft) to offer courses in top-ranked programs at the undergraduate, MBA, Hybrid MBA, Executive MBA, TMMBA, MSIS, MSCM, MSBA, Ph.D., and executive levels. In accordance with our commitment to excellence and equity, the Foster School values contributions in research, teaching, and service that address diversity and equal opportunity. We are currently engaged in several searches for faculty to join the Foster School with the aim of increasing thought leadership in these areas. For more information visit https://foster.uw.edu.
